Shinobu drummed her fingers on the table impatiently, wanting to get out of there as soon as possible. She yawned, and noticed Muichiro and Yuichiro were practically already asleep. 

Mitsuri seemed bored, and as both groups glared at each other, Tamayo and Yushiro went on and on about random things about having a rivalry, and other things. Shinobu wasn't even listening anymore at this point, all of them were just glaring at each other. It had only been the first few minutes, and she already couldn't stand it.

She could tell the others felt the same, as they seemed pretty annoyed already too. She took out her song sheet to study it while she waited and pretended to listen to their long speech, and proposed a plan in her mind for the competition in a few weeks. 

"And that concludes it." 

"Freaking FINALLY!" 

Sanemi stood up, and so did the others. 

"How long even was this meeting?" 

"Around 10 minutes." 

"It felt like 10 hours."

Yushiro and Tamayo stayed back a bit to catch up with each other (they're friends), and everyone else merely got ready to walk down and back to their cars. 

"You guys will be competing against each other far more, so be prepared." 

Shinobu stood up quickly, and the others did too. Her group followed her downstairs, and before they got into their car, she turned suddenly. 

"So... when's the competition?" 

"In around a few weeks." 

She smiled. "We better get ready then!" 

Mitsuri thought for a moment, and the twins snickered. 

"They can't beat us, anyway." 

 A few hours later, they returned to their training room. 

"So... what's the plan?" 

Most people knew that Muichiro and Yuichiro acted all immature outside, but on stage, they were completely different. Mitsuri, on the other hand, was known to keep an elegant posture at all times. 

Her voice was higher, and she excelled at singing higher pitched lyrics, and normal ones at the same time. Shinobu had barely ever soloed, so no one had ever heard her voice too well. She had decided that for this competition, she would reveal her voice. 

"Hey Mitsuri... are you alright with me singing alone in the middle of the song?" 

Mitsuri looked at her strangely. "I thought you always wanted to cover your voice up for some reason? But sure! Your voice is beautiful." 

Shinobu smiled slightly at her. "I'm glad you think so." 

The twins nodded in agreement. "There's a reason you became the best singer at our old agency." 

Her face brightened, and she pulled out a lyric sheet. (Just saying, none of the lyrics I will put in here are mine.) 

"Alright then, study this, and let's practice! Oh also, Kanae is coming tomorrow to help us with the background music." 

Muichiro looked at the sheet, and nodded. Everyone else did too, when they heard Kanae would be going to their place to help them with the choreography.

"Alright then. Let's get started with the choreography?" 

Yuichiro smacked him out of the way. "Can I sing first?"
